I’m a high school student at Alameda Community Learning Center. Cutting the budget for foreign-aid programs denies millions of people a future. Congress took action last year to stop the proposed cuts. Congress must continue to take big steps with even more intensity now. 

Sen. Dianne Feinstein signed the Senate dear colleague letter for appropriations for Maternal and Child Health. She also signed the Global Partnership for Education and Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria dear colleague letters.

Sen. Kamala Harris still has an opportunity to help babies get the nutrition they need and prevent unnecessary maternal and child deaths by signing on to the REACH Every Mother and Child Act.
Sen. Feinstein, you are a true supporter and we hope that you will continue to advocate in partnership with us on these issues so that we can bring an end to poverty by 2030.
